I feel that it is time to respond to the negativity and the angst felt by so many, with a blog which is an antidote to the ranting. Perhaps a more positive take on the many wonderful things that I see in our community and the wider world.
Despite the trials and tribulations of modern life, basic humanity still shines through and, if you take the time to look, every day you can find something to amaze and surprise - to make you smile, or even laugh!
So, enough of the miserable negative outlook. Let's share those moments of happiness, beauty and wonder which will always exist, even in the hardest of times.
There is another blog here titled "One good deed per day" which is pretty inspirational. I will not make that promise, but I do commit to seeing the good that others do - and that is what I will be writing about.
For clarification, I'm not talking about changing the world type stunts, I'm interested in the small selfless acts which cost nothing, yet mean so much: a door held open, a child comforted, a token gift of thanks.
I hope that my stories will bring a moment of brightness into your day, and perhaps the blog can be a medium which inspires positive action to escape the doom and gloom spread by the shortsighted whiners of this world - hence, a Medium for Escape...
